Hello P3A families,
Here are this week’s highlights from the yellow Table:
Viven enjoyed trying some ‘soft g’ foods as part of her phonics lesson. The options to try were: vegetables, gingerbread men and oranges. She enjoyed the vegetable sugar snap peas best.
Riley and Linda both reported that building Linlithgow Palace was the learning highlight of their week. Linda built hers using a cardboard box and Riley built his with lego. Linlithgow Palace is a landmark of West Lothian.
Aadya liked demonstrating her understanding of what the 4 times tables looked like. She discovered that the answers were double to answers to the 2 times table. Well spotted Aadya!
Olivia loved making a leaflet about restaurants in West Lothian. Her team worked well together to research restaurants. They included useful information such as the address, opening hours, pictures of the food and their website. Good job!
Ollie said the best part of his week was the football after school club.
Diana loved making the word ‘gems’ with gems as part of soft g learning. The words looked very sparkly!
My highlight was our RE lesson about The Good Samaritan as part of ‘God’s Loving Plan’. The children could recall many Bible stories prior to the learning. After listening to the story, they acted it out and then accompanied various words from the story to movement. We call this ‘Story Massage’. Ask your child to show you the different massage movements. They included: Fan, Walk, Sprinkle, Circle, Wave and Calm. The children enjoyed this relaxing exercise so much that we hope to build it in to a lesson in the near future!
Congratulations to Aadya, our hot chocolate award winner this week!
Lead Learners were Diana and Chahiti. They had the important role of looking out for people who were demonstrating our school rules of being Ready, Respectful and Safe. They also get to say something extra for the blog:
Linda – “I liked going to the cloakroom and telling the teacher who was being sensible.”
Caiden – “I liked football with Miss White.”
Regards
Mrs Brown
